EMOTIONAL INDEPENDENCE™... SIMPLIFIED INTO THE 4 TENET FRAMEWORK
You’ve read the books, gone to therapy, and tried to meditate the overthinking away—but your peace still feels like it’s on a timer. You replay conversations, absorb other people’s moods, and feel guilty when others are uncomfortable or unhappy. Being the strong one who holds it all together is secretly keeping you in "falling apart" mode.
That’s where I come in. I teach Emotional Independence™... the next tier of growth beyond self-awareness and the insight gained from therapy. Learn my 4 Tenet EmI™ Framework that teached how you can go from emotional overload to emotional mastery. Together, we build your ability to stay grounded, confident, and calm no matter what (or who) is happening around you. You’ll learn to trust your emotions, sidestep other people's drama and mess, regulate your energy, and lead your life from fierce self-trust instead of over-compensating.
After years of therapy sessions, I kept seeing the same thing: brilliant, successful, self-aware women who could explain every childhood wound—but still couldn’t stop people-pleasing, overthinking, or worrying abouot everyone else’s feelings or reactions. It was the same quiet ache. They’d done the therapy. They knew the language. They understood why they felt anxious, drained, or resentful—yet they still couldn’t stay steady no matter what (or who) was happening around them.
Awareness wasn’t the issue. Application was.
So I built The Emotional Independence™ Framework to close that gap. It’s built around four core Tenets—self-awareness, self-regulation, self-trust, and self-protection—each one giving you the tools and mindset shifts to stop absorbing what doesn’t belong to you. It’s where insight becomes action, and healing becomes strength you can feel.
This is how you stop being ruled by your moods—or anyone else’s—and start leading your life steady, grounded, and fierce.
Because emotional mastery and peace isn’t about staying calm all the time. It’s about knowing how to stay in charge of your energy, no matter what (or who) walks into the room.
“Working with Dr. Andelle showed me I wasn’t broken—I was just overwhelmed. Now I actually feel bold. I make choices that fit me, I say no more easily, and I’m not walking on eggshells worrying about everyone else’s feelings."
